Common law

[Windragon100576]

Please tell me if possible. I eneter Canada as a tourist. Since I am still married in the Philippines and still using my exhusbands last name I dont have any choice but to put in the marital status that i am married. Because divorce is not welcome in the Philippines. Now when I came here in Canada, luckily found a job and now I have a work permit. Is it possible for me to declare that I have a common law partner back home? We've been living together for 3 years. I have no idea then that there is such thing here in Canada as a common law partner. If I knew I should have declared it then..... Please help.
